OOOHHH! That sounds painful! I'm so sorry you got hurt Donna.

If you can't butterfly it, at least cover it, and wrap your whole hand so that the thumb and pointer fingers are immobilized for a while. The ointment is a good idea. I would keep it dry also.

The most important thing is that it doesn't become infected. Also, if you keep moving your hand, the cut won't heal well.
